  • Guest Information
    GUEST INFORMATION WE HOPE YOU ENJOY YOUR STAY St Hugh’s College • St Margaret’s Road • Oxford • OX2 6LE A BRIEF HISTORY OF ST HUGH’S COLLEGE Compared to many Oxford Colleges, St Hugh’s is young, having been founded as St Hugh’s Hall in 1886 by Elizabeth Wordsworth, the great niece of the poet, who was also Principal of Lady Margaret Hall. A champion of women’s education, her foundation of St Hugh’s enabled poorer women to gain an Oxford education, beginning modestly with four students in a house in Norham Road. Elizabeth Wordsworth’s father was Bishop of Lincoln and that inspired her to adopt the emblem and coat of arms of St Hugh of Avalon who had been Bishop of Lincoln 1186–1200. His emblem was the Swan of Stowe, said to be his companion who guarded him as he slept. By the time WWI broke out, St Hugh’s Hall was ready for larger premises and a site was purchased, the existing house demolished, and the current Main Building constructed. Since then, St Hugh’s has expanded, by both erecting new buildings and by purchasing the Victorian houses that form its perimeter. New buildings have included the Library (1937), Kenyon Building (1965), Wolfson Building (1967), Rachel Trickett Building (1991), Maplethorpe Building (1999) and, most recently, the Dickson Poon China Centre (2014). St Hugh’s Hall was incorporated as a College in 1910 and, in 1920, finally became part of the University, along with the other women’s Colleges, when the BA was opened to women.
